Here's a picture of my Baer discs! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I attached a picture showing my new brake setup. I can't wait to install them. The front caliper is off of a C5 and the rear is a C4. The rotors are both 13.25". I also just made a down payment on my new intro 20" wheels. Then I'll be able to install my brakes. Yeah!

Here's the wheel I ordered. Should be done in 2 weeks.

*67Fleetsidedream* · 12-02-2003, 09:55 PM

Love those wheels...

SCOTI · 12-02-2003, 10:02 PM

They had a wheel just like that one on display @ the Goodguys show recently but the spokes were powder coated charcol grey. Nice looking wheel either way.

You mean this one? It's not exactly the same wheel but it's pretty close....

FRENCHBLUE72 · 12-02-2003, 10:14 PM

Nic ewheel's look's like those brake's will put ya threw the windshiled!! Nice .

MrShelley · 12-02-2003, 10:23 PM

Love those wheels! That's the Pentia, right?

I didn't know Baer made brakes to fit our trucks. Have a part number so I can order me some?

K5KRAZIE · 12-02-2003, 10:28 PM

You have to post up some pictures of the install!!!

Injected68LS1 · 12-02-2003, 10:54 PM

Thanks guys. I'm glad you like the wheels. It is the Pentia. I couldn't think of a better wheel to put on my truck. I chose the wheel so that it was a little bit of a resemblence to the classic torque thrust. I also want to show off my brakes.

I guess I'm going to have to take pics of the install.

Here's a link for the brakes. http://www.truckinweb.com/buyersguide/brakes/6lug_c10/

The rear is a universal pro-touring 12-bolt setup.

dinnut · 12-02-2003, 11:00 PM

wow 1600. i have always wanted to see those wheels on a 67-72. ive seen them on 73-87s - a truck called highway to hill comes to mind. AWESOME!

DanoDMano · 12-02-2003, 11:08 PM

Man those are going to be nice. I like the rotors on those brakes, they will look great through those wheels.

sniper2321 · 12-03-2003, 01:41 AM

what offset are you going with on those wheels

Low68 · 12-03-2003, 02:03 AM

man, you suck. That is what I wanted to do on my truck. I want to do that.

GreenMystChevy · 12-03-2003, 02:38 AM

Couldn't have picked a better wheel myself. It'll look real nice with those disc brakes shining through.

The front is a 20x8 with 4.75" backspace
The rear is a 20x9.5 with 5.25" backspace

They came up with the numbers, so I'm hoping hey will be what I want.

brad2 · 12-03-2003, 11:27 PM

Love those wheels! They are possible candidates for mine as well. I noticed our calipers are different or at least appear to be in the pics.

Injected68LS1 · 12-04-2003, 04:09 AM

they must have gone to a different design. PBR makes the calipers that I have. those definitely look different.

jorgensensc · 12-04-2003, 04:14 AM

Do you have any idea how jealous I am?

ColinOpseth · 08-07-2004, 12:27 AM

I can probably beat those prices for the brakes. Contact me if you're interested

I got a set of SICK brakes for one of my customer's 90 IROC-Z convertible. Front and rear for about $2500 shipped

Or, call me if you need.. 909-314-5966

ryan68 · 08-07-2004, 12:59 AM

Doesn't Baer also make like a 14.85" brake system for your trucks. I rmember looking at something like that on there website, says minimum 18's for wheels, might even have been 20's.

7gmc2 · 08-07-2004, 12:05 PM

i will be looking forward to your progress with the install of these brakes. they should make a great difference in brakeing! do they work with the e/brake as well? would these work with 15 inch rims? i guess the cost is very high on these? keep us updated........

nate68 · 08-07-2004, 05:21 PM

now if they only made those wheels in 15" size.

mocwon · 08-07-2004, 06:41 PM

Love those wheels. Looks similiar to the wheels I will be using. Coddington Magnetos.
